The number of Ukrainians forced to flee has reached 10 million and thousands are waiting to flee Mariupol, which is still bombed by Russian troops today. Meanwhile, glimpses of the negotiations are pouring in from Turkey, and the mystery surrounding Moscow’s threats against Italy grows ever thicker
What happens?
According to the UN, ten million Ukrainians had to flee their homeland. Three million three hundred thousand left the country in 25 days of war and who knows when they can return. Tens of thousands are waiting to leave the martyr city of Mariupol. A group of Ukrainian lawmakers has denounced the rape and hanging of women by Russian soldiers, which the government wants to investigate. According to the Deputy Prime Minister of Kyiv, the number of civilians killed so far is much higher than that of Ukrainian soldiers: the war is now targeting cities more than any other target. denounces deportations to concentration camps in Russia. If even half of it were true, what political motive or territorial claim could ever justify such horror? All this inhumanity said Pope Francis is indeed a sacrilege because it violates the sanctity of human life. Above all against defenseless human life, which must be respected and protected and which stands before any strategy
how does it come out
Contacts between Kyiv and Moscow are to be resumed tomorrow. Zelenskyy, with whom every now and then someone here in Italy wants to negotiate from his TV lounge, reiterated yesterday that the war, ready to deal with Putin, can only end with negotiations. Turkish Foreign Minister Cavusoglu, who was in both Moscow and Kyiv this week, says the two capitals are even close to an agreement, negotiating six points: neutrality, disarmament and security guarantees for Ukraine, denazification, whatever that means the removal of obstacles to the use of the Russian language, the status of the breakaway regions of Donbass and Crimea. But it seems more to be the Russian agenda. Which, according to Kyiv, would have relied on a mercenary agency, the Wagner, to try once more (the fourth for the Times of London) to assassinate the Ukrainian president.
It’s Italy?
It turned out that during the Conte I and Conte II governments, Alexei Paramonov, the Russian diplomat who yesterday threatened Italy with irreversible consequences for sanctions, was awarded two high decorations of the republic: Knight of the Order of Merit in December 2018 and Commander of the Order of the star in December 2020. The mystery of the Russian mission that brought aid to Italy hit by Covid in March 2020 and which yesterday accused Paramonov of our Minister Guerini is also growing. SulCorriere Fiorenza Sarzanini recalls that in the list of 104 names, only 28 were doctors and 4 were nurses, all others were military. The Ukrainian Deputy Prime Minister thanked our country for the turning point in bilateral relations: Italy had shed all romance with Russia and had never been by our side like this.
